Trump is an older billionaire. Please share the criminal convictions against Trump, otherwise quit spreading disinformation. You like to say others are providing disinformation, yet you are one of the biggest in the forum telling lies to support your arguments.
Wait, you are the guy who believes the Russia investigation and impeachments were a "witch hunt," the FBI had "credible evidence" that "Biden bribed another country and received 5 million dollars," and the Durham Report shows the FBI was weaponized against Trump, while dismissing the factual record which shows otherwise.
After ignoring the evidence all this time, now suddenly it's "please show us" and "you're telling lies"?
Suddenly you are up in arms about "disinformation"?
You've set "criminal convictions" as the standard for judging Trump, while keeping Hannity/Giuliani allegations as the standard for judging Biden. Will that standard hold if Trump is convicted of document theft and sedition? Or will you just continue claiming "witch hunt"?
Anyone can play for you a tape of Trump saying he does much worse to women, as well as his uncertainty over whether sexual predation is a bad thing since it's been around "a million years."
But you are skeptical that 22 allegations of assault against Trump could be attributed to anything more than his being a billionaire.

Had that been, let's say Donald Trump for example, it would be the only story getting airplay right now.
At the end of the day, reporters are people and news networks have biases, so certain things are going to get more coverage over others.
No reporter/network is 100% void of political opinion.
If you think this kind of thing wasn't present back before social media existed, you're wrong.
It just wasn't nearly as accessible as things are today.
With all that said, I agree that certain networks/reporters choose to report on certain things and/or give a completely different interpretation of something as some other reporter/network would.

I recall people claiming the media was out to make Dan Quayle look like a dope. Sure, the potato thing was an honest mistake, but there is no denying Lloyd Bentsen ate the dude's lunch in that VP debate.
Of course a lack of TV make FDR electable by hiding that he was crippled and the existence of TV made JFK electable by making Nixon look weird and ugly and so on. It's always some sort of plot against the GOP.

Abbot hain't the president and you and I both know this country isn't electing someone in a wheelchair to the presidency. It isn't right, but it's just the way it is. Dear lord if Biden ends up in a wheelchair at any point in the next year it's 110% over.

And the FDR statue in DC that was made in the 2000s i think has him wearing a cape that obscures his wheelchair. It's bizarre we still hang on to the illusion in any sense.
